Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, flaming otters, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yeah, Jesse, I can see how the man is holding you down.
Oh fun Ayuverda TriDosha test: [link]
Yes. I see how the pinko lefty-hippy dippy are related. but hippy dippy is way too Californian for me. I want to go back to being enveloped in rage at the system instead.
sadly, I'd rather do downward dog.
a muscle in my right jaw is cramping up. HURTS SO BAD.
Ooh, are they actually trying to get me in the middle of who is responsible for not sharing information? Guess what? I can guarantee I was not the one who was supposed to share the information. I'm the temp! Christ.

Temps should get automatic neutrality in office kerfluffles. Sort of like an underpaid Switzerland.
I'm actually a well-paid temp, but yet? Still not the person responsible for transmitting information between two department heads, one of whom said she would talk to the other one.
They want to bring it? It's already been broughten.

Oh, cool.
When I temped I was fairly underpaid. But the person paying for me constantly bitched about my paycheck. Turns out she was bitching about what she paid to my temp agency, which was about three times what I was making. Hmmmmmm. 15 years later and I'm still a tad bitter. Go figure.

That's the temp market for you. Still, it seems like really bad form to bitch to any kind of employee about having to pay them -- and why do I suspect that she was the type who constantly reminded her children of how expensive they were to raise?
Ooh, that's so tacky, Calli! I'm actually a consultant, and the org is paying me directly, so I'm sure I'm getting more in my paycheck and they are paying less for me than for the actual through-an-agency temp who's doing the same work I am. (Maternity leave + busy time.)
My boss, who makes a lot more than me, obviously, is always bitching to me about her low salary. People! Welcome to the Tact Factory! We don't complain about our diamond shoes in front of the one-legged woman with no root!
Har, flea.
